I was challenged to create a snowflake themed project and created this sweet little doll.

I started off by painting the pegs with gesso, and then using the silicone glue to attach them to some wooden snowflakes from my stash.

Once they were set I used the wet gesso to sprinkle some of the Frantage embossing powder on the snowflake and then I heat set it. I used some yarn for her hair and painted her face with some Ranger paints to give a skin tone effect.

I added some bridal trim and laces from my stash to create her dress, and then a pretty bow on the front of her dress.

I added a metal snowflake and flower to her hair from my stash, but you can find lots of great metal pieces to embellish your dolly at The Crafters' Palette Store .

I have created a fun St. Pattys Day card with some Newton's Nook Stamps and dies. I used the NN Holiday Hounds and also the matching dies. I added some Garden Splendor Sequins and also some holly jolly enamel dots from the Laura's Loft Store.

I used my watercolours to paint the puppy, who looks so happy with his seasonal coloured scarf!
For the clovers I used the heart from the Newton's Nook Holiday Hounds set, and stamped it three times in two different green tones. I added a stem using my Spectrum Noir Marker in a matching color, and this was a simple and easy way to make the clovers when you don't have a stamp that will do.
